Tito got owned

So I'm watching the The Ultimate Fighter and they had a challenge that who ever won a game of pool (well, 2 outta 3) between Ken and Tito would win $10,000.

As soon as the challenge was mentioned in the house Ken said that he didn't play pool. Tito was totally up for it tho, as he was known as a pretty accomplished pool player.

Well, Ken broke the first game and ran some balls. Then Tito tried a trick shot (jumping a ball) and missed. Ken then finished the game for the win. Next game Tito broke and didn't make anything. Ken came in and RAN THE TABLE!

Well, I mean, Ken can't be a better coach than Tito and he certainly isn't a better fighter than Tito, and Ken can't be less of a douche than Tito...
So it was nice Dana found the one thing in life that Ken might be able to do better than Tito.

And that's when I figured out that tears couldn't make somebody who was dead alive again. There's another thing to learn about tears, they can't make somebody who doesn't love you any more love you again. It's the same with prayers. I wonder how much of their lives people waste crying and praying to God. If you ask me, the devil makes more sense than God does. I can at least see why people would want him around. It's good to have somebody to blame for the bad stuff they do. Maybe God's there because people get scared of all the bad stuff they do. They figure that God and the Devil are always playing this game of tug-of-war game with them. And they never know which side they're gonna wind up on. I guess that tug-of-war idea explains how sometimes, even when people try to do something good, it still turns out bad.

I gotta say this. Ken didn't "hustle" Tito. He just pretended he couldn't play and then smoked him. Hustling is goading someone into thinking you can't play in order to get them to bet a pile of money. Then you rip on them and collect the winnings. Since the money was up for grabs to begin with, no one got hustled.

But Ken's play did thoroughly impress me. He should go into professional Billiards after UFC 61.

Ken's play impressed me too, considering that he is a pro fighter and just a recreational pool player. He had decent form and stroke, and a couple of the combination shots he played showed good speed control of the cue ball. He was not only making the combination, but controlling the speed of the cue ball so that he was set up for the shot after the combination. He looked like an okay (not "good", but I'm sure he doesn't spend 40 hours a week in a Pool hall, either) amateur player.

I thought it was really funny, the way Ken reacted with "I don't play Pool!", and then played the way he did. It was a good mind job on Tito.
